You are probably the first Canadian to mention about mile. Double check this one. I think you were referring to 1,000km.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11854434513420932216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-831613295895512847.post-28144207186295763552009-06-17T06:04:07.425-07:002009-06-17T06:04:07.425-07:00Holy cow, that moose is HUGE!

I'm giving myself an "Inbetween season break" of 5 weeks until the next one. I'm actually seriously itching to just sign up for a race in 2 weeks but I know whats best for me. This marathoning... its like a drug!!! <br /><br />To get my mind off it I started swimming in hopes to start doing some sprint triathalons.

Way to go! I'd love to be able to tolerate that much running. Not sure my body could take it. As for the 5k, sounds interesting. Since it's on a tarmac, I say they delay the start by 45 minutes, change the starting area 2 or 3 times, and charge you extra to pin the number to your shirt (I'll be here all week, folks. You've been great!)Colin Hayeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17748487053513730467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-831613295895512847.post-78578810460468699162009-06-14T06:43:09.350-07:002009-06-14T06:43:09.350-07:00Man, that is one hell of a moose!
